Today, there were a few coins in the reject slot, and after taking a look, I got 57 cents and a 1929 penny!

Almost didn't do it, but the day before yesterday I did try out the coinstar machine at my grocery store, and got my first finds:
- 2010 British 5 pence piece (worth about US $0.07)
- EU 5 cents piece, dated 1999 (must be one of the first years after the Euro was created), worth about 5 1/2 US cents
- German 1995 1 pfenning piece (was worth a little less than one US cent, but was demonetized when the Euro was created
Anyway, nothing of any value but was pleased to find anything at all - and I could actually spend the first two of these if I go to Europe.

I saw a cent laying on the floor in front of the Coinstar machine this morning. In the reject slot were 2 foreign cents.

Today I found a 1963-D dime in the dumping hopper of the machine. I didn't have any change on me, so I used my debit card to get it out. Probably the only time I'll be using my debit card outside of banks anytime soon!

I think you need to keep an eye on that machine.

Used coinstar today since TD penny arcade is no longer an option. Saw a nice little pile of change in the reject slot before I even started. Totals were 26 cents including a 41, 6 nickels, 15 dimes including a 1951 and three arcade tokens. Total of $2.06. Cashed in for an applebees gift card.
